Dark trees and grey cloud Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was shot half an hour before the post of yesterday and just before it started raining. The sunlight was kind of funny and I knew I was going to get a lot of rain. But at the same time it was very nice to see the blue sky in the back and this dark scenary in the foreground.

I cropped the image and enhanced the contrasts and colours.

Hi Ricardo,
A very simple but effective resulting capture of this beautiful weather and sky moment. Nice frame with the branch trees silhouettes at the foreground a a simphony of blue sky dancing with grey cold clouds and white warm clouds, in a atmosphere mood cycle of sun and rain.

Very simple but a great composition. Very well seen, done and composed.

Have a great weekend and my congratulations.
Fernando

Very impressionistic shot. Not too sharp but that's actually fitting for this type of photo. The contrasting colours are really dramatic.

Thanks for sharing!

Hola Ricardo.

Nice this one. Really is very simple, but is really nice.
The format and composition are good, as are also good the colour of the sky.

It's a nice work.

Regards.

Olá Ricardo, gostei do formato retangular da composição. As cores bem saturadas são muito chamativas. Eu acho k devias ter empregado o formato panorâmico, como fizestes na anterior. Assim dava para apreciar melhor os detalhes. Eu também fiz uma foto muito parecida, mas ainda não a publiquei. Existe um pequeno problema de ruído, que pode ser facilmente eliminado. Um bom fim de semana. Amizade, Gabriel.

Astonish landscape. Fine trees and clouds. Almost graphic. Interesting format. I like it.

Good graphism & silhouettes. The high cpntrast suits the image perfectly. I like the tonal range. Parabens & obrigado!

Bonjour Ricardo,
Bien vu l'effet panoramique pour mieux rendre compte de la communication entre les arbres et le ciel. L'on dirait que les nuages s'amusent à copier la couleur des arbres (à voir ce morceau de ciel en noir).
Un bien joli glissando du ciel.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Interesting find, Ricardo, with this very dark cloud hovering above the tree silhouettes. The panoramic format was a good choice on this one and enhances the graphical aspect of the photo. In terms of technical quality there is a bit of noise in the sky, and you could have tried to get the photo size closer to the 200 KB that you are allowed to use. I still like it though.

Hello Ricardo, this is a great panorama with interesting silhouettes and clouds. The sky is a stunning blue colour.

Nice pamoramic setting. I like the darkness of the trees against the bright sky. The feeling of the photograph is wild and windy! This is dramatic as well. Good work.

Excellent contraluz, I love this kind of framing Ricardo. It must be difficult to be the black cloud among the whites. It´s a nice photo.

Hi Ricardo,
This shot resembles a painting. I really like the mix of colours and tones here. The puffy little cloud in mid-frame really enhances. The trees are silhouetted for great ambience. Nicely done. ITs a keeper.

Hej Ricardo,
A very nice and simple picture! I like this composition of some natural elements. The silhouettes of the trees create a fine contrast to the white cloud. Well seen and captured. Good work!
